Follow Your Heart

Hello! Gosh it's been so hot here! I love summer but it's sure nice when we get a few cooler evenings.

I saw the colours of this month's Words and Paintery challenge recently and fell in love. The neutrals and white are such a unique combination.

Here's what I came up with:


Here's the challenge criteria......


.... and here's how I interpreted the quote:


I think it's quite a challenge to use this neutrals colour combo with no pops of colour and I really enjoyed this. I kept the background reasonable clean as I really liked the crisp feel these colours created. I used chipboard, 7 Dots papers, dictionary paper, stamping, gauze and die-cuts to create lots of depth and topped it all with a metal butterfly.



There are only a few days left to join in the challenge! You can find it HERE.


Happy scrappin'!

    Oh yes I hear you about the heat.. we have had some severe hot days up here and I think they are going to get worse towards the end of this week.. I dont like the heat...it makes it difficult when it doesn't seem to cool off at night either.. .however.. your layout is wonderful.. I love the softness of the colors and great layers and stamping too.. love the quote as well.. take care and i hope the temperature doesnt get too hot...
